Having aired on Friday night, the mix will be available for the following 3 days for his Mixcloud Select subscribers.
The Bedrock Records label boss has come a long way in two decades. In his early days, Digweed began radio with nothing but a sharp ear for upcoming talent and a box full of records. And of course, his burning desire to share his curation of music with the world. Subscribers will also be treated to Digweed’s first ever London’s Kiss 100 FM broadcast with Deep Dish from Heaven, London. His radio shows are posted to his Mixcloud profile.
His initial shows on Kiss 100 FM amassed a global fanbase. As Digweed carefully selected artists and tracks to showcase on his massive platform, fans continued to show support for his monumental radio movement. To this day, Digweed continues to defend the essence of his early days.
It wasn’t until 2004 that John Digweed appropriately gave his radio show the title ‘Transitions’. It was around this time that his show topped off as the leading dance music radio show worldwide. Today, the heavily respected show is broadcasted across 70 countries and 82 major radio networks weekly. Not to mention, it boasts over 11 million weekly listeners.
‘Transitions’ is now the most followed channel on Mixcloud with a growing audience. After being one of the first artist to begin hosting mixes on the platform, Digweed has racked up over 13.1 million plays in total. Mixcloud Select subscribers have access to exclusive streams.
Withstanding the test of time, ‘Transitions’ is now the most followed channel on popular streaming platform Mixcloud and holds a strong and rapidly growing audience.

John Digweed, who averages around 104 hours of radio playtime per year adds, “It’s always been about playing new music and helping showcase promising new talent”.
Fans won’t forget his 500th episode, in which he broadcasted live worldwide from a boat party for five consecutive hours during Miami Music Week 2014. And even now in quarantine, he continues to stand out among the rest. He began his weekly ‘Bunker’ live stream in March, showcased every Saturday at 9 PM BST. Since then, he’s streamed the show for 26 weeks. Digweed’s track record assures an exciting future for his career and his fans.
